Chapter 305: Chapter 305: Fled in Haste (1)_1

Xia Wan’an was about to speak, but suddenly the words vanished from her lips, her mind unconsciously shifted away.

"Xia, what’s wrong?" Qin Shujian noticed Xia Wan’an’s reaction and couldn’t help asking; following her gaze, she looked in the same direction.

A tall figure loomed in her sight, his face was even more bewitching than a woman’s, adorned with a roguish smile.

Although he had grown much taller and matured significantly since his youth, and even his aura had entirely changed to the point of being unrecognizable, Qin Shujian still recognized him as her high school classmate, Cheng An.

"Nothing really, I just saw an acquaintance... I thought I could introduce him to you..." As Xia Wan’an drew back her gaze, she did not notice Qin Shujian’s peculiar reaction. After finishing her sentence, she grabbed a tissue, wiped the corner of her lips, and stood up: "Wait for me here, I’ll go get him..."

Without allowing for a response from Qin Shujian, Xia Wan’an lifted the edge of her long skirt slightly and paced out of the club restaurant with grace.

It wasn’t until Xia Wan’an was almost in front of Cheng An that Qin Shujian came back to her senses.

The acquaintance referred to by Xia Wan’an was Cheng An... that guy... who had her...her... on the night just after her eighteenth birthday.

Qin Shujian’s face turned unnaturally pale. She watched Xia Wan’an say something to Cheng An, and then saw Xia Wan’an walking back to the restaurant with her arm linked in Cheng An’s.

Without hesitation, Qin Shujian bent down to hide her face, hurriedly grabbed her belongings, and silently slipped out from the back door of the restaurant.

"Huh? Where did Qin Shujian go?" Xia Wan’an looked at the empty dining table, stood still for a moment, and then began searching everywhere.

"Baby, who are you talking about?" Jingnian clearly caught the name that Xia Wan’an uttered. Despite his low gentle voice, there was a distinct coldness in his eyes.

"Qin Shujian, you know, the big star, I told you about her before..." Xia Wan’an noticed that Qin Shujian was nowhere in sight, she wondered: "Did she go to the restroom?"

"Perhaps..." Jingnian replied, though internally, he scoffed.

That woman, he knew her all too well. Go to the restroom? More likely, she’s run away!

Jingnian raised his hand and gently touched Xia Wan’an’s head: "Baby, I have an urgent matter and need to go upstairs for a bit. You stay here."

Xia Wan’an nodded, her eyes smiling.

The hand that Jingnian had placed on Xia Wan’an’s head lingered for a moment longer, giving her head a gentle rub before he quickly walked away. However, instead of heading upstairs, he went straight to the underground parking lot.

Xia Wan’an sat alone at the dining table, continuing to eat the dish that Qin Shujian had called her "little cabbage." However, after only a couple of bites, her phone rang. It was Qin Shujian.

"Xia, I had an urgent matter and had to leave first. I’ll contact you later...Oh, I left the gift I brought for you at the club reception. Don’t forget to pick it up..."

At that moment, Qin Shujian seemed to remember something, and interjected: "Xia, that acquaintance you introduced to me today, are you close? You two seemed quite intimate. Did you escape from Han Jingnian’s clutches just to sink into another turbulent sea? If that’s the case, Xia, I beg you, please go back to Han Jingnian..."
